Late Summer Morning

I love trees, although not in a way that makes me want to hug them. The way they silhouette against the sky, the way they move in the wind, the shade they give on hot summer days, and the sound they make on a stormy night. When I am ill I often lay in bed or on the sofa watching the trees blow in the wind in the afternoon light, and I remember climbing different trees with my brothers when I was young.

Trees.

Changing Times

Murals on wall were once common here in Poland - sometimes political, often abstract, or advertising a product, service or similar. Until the political changes in 1989 there was a huge network of narrow gauge railways, carrying goods between rural areas and the mainline system.

Neither is much valued these days.

This is the side of a pavilion-style local shopping centre in a village, a common sight, a now unloved but once brave attempt to bring modernity to those living in the countryside.

Home isn't just a place you live in, or a place to show off to your friends and family, it's a place where you can do the things that you like doing.

I have done several updates to this image since I made this version, ad I still think there is more that I can do. One of the advantages of Black and White is that you are not forever limited by colour matching issues.

Memories

Via Flickr:
Memories are those events where we feel like an individual participating in the world. If you don't consider the participation then you become selfish, if you don't consider the being an individual then you become invisible.

A Fear of Falling Forward

Via Flickr:
Ever wondered what life might be like when you've gone? Your way of life today is what many people were afraid of in the past, and in the future it will probably seem antiquated.

Learn to fall forward - it hurts less than falling backwards. And you get to see where you're landing.

092 - Catwalk Girl

I did this mostly to show that any photograph has potential, even if blurry after being taken in a poorly lit corridor. The only thing I have added are the lights.

Don't get me wrong, I like the way people take sharp images using lights and real models, I just think that there are other things one can do with photography, especially if you cannot afford specialist equipment.

At the end of the day, I like to encourage people to do things that are worthwhile without having to go down the route of large investments.

Ania had her hair cut shorter today than she has ever had it before. This is in a cafe shortly after.

I often wonder how many group hugs one can have in life and yet not be moved to take action that may help prevent the need for such hugs. Facebook is full of such 'hugs' over different images.

Come together in shock at a picture, walk away washed of all guilt.

It cannot be just me that sees the blame is elsewhere, but here. Can it?
